Abstract
A secure server in a secure distributed information system isolates interaction from terminals to specific personal vaults including and to only those personal vaults, creating a "virtual logon". The secure server includes a secure connection server coupled to the system and to a vault deposit server having personal vaults in which user specific vault processes execute on dedicated encrypted data, after authentication of the user by a vault supervisor. The supervisor forwards vault process results to the user through the browser.
